Thank you again for the opportunity to sail on your beautiful boat. It was a wonderful experience and I hope to sail again with your company in the future. I have attached a copy of my Day Skipper Card with my photo laminated in place. (It is an old photo so I’m not really as youthful as I appear on paper!) Sabina (Blue Oyster RYA Instructor) was wonderful. Our crew was great. My warmest wishes to Mark and Harriett.

I have attached a couple of pics from our time on Dogstar with Oliver, Dal and Andy, joined by Andres week one and James week two. On the last day of our trip we experienced the most exhilarating sail across the strait with good wind, calm sea, warm weather and dolphins – it was so good that I heard the words I hoped to hear from Sheenagh – “I think you and me can do this together on a smaller boat”. She was transformed, transfixed and tangibly moved to a point of emotion I had crossed my fingers for. Sheenagh and I had a fantastic experience which we successfully turned into a “holiday” too.

Thank you for arranging it all and for your patience in answering our novice questions. We have reflected very favourably on the two weeks which Oliver handled very professionally – I love the guy and would have no problem sailing with him anywhere in the world.

I just made a quick visit this weekend to Gibraltar to catch up with Roddy. He seems very happy and highly motivated. I think that the only thing that he is missing is your cooking ! He made me so enthusiastic too that I was wondering if there might be a possibility of taking my Day Skipper Course when Roddy is back in Barcelona ? How many days would this take? I have RYA Powerboat Level 2, in case that is relevant. Please let me know your thoughts and costings

Many thanks
Diane
